About a month ago my PR dropped from 5 to 0. I meticulously checked
all aspects and made changes to my site (sendmoneyhome.org) against
Google's guidelines to see why this may be the case but to no avail.
In addition, in Webmaster Tools it is still indicating that my site
has no external links. However, I have genuine not paid for links from
the British, Dutch, French, US governments the UN the World Bank,
IFAD, countless migrant Diaspora organisations and UK based
Embassies... The list goes on. I have never paid for a link or
employed an SEO/SEP company and have achieved great SERP rankings by
developing the site by myself and organically over the past three
years. Can anyone shed some light as to why I have been punished?

I agree but it was a useful suggestion for me. However, still no
closer to understanding what Google sees that is wrong with my site to
erradicate my page rank...

sendmoneyhome.org a forwarding address to www.sendmoneyhome.org. This
was created because an error I made in WM tools telling it that
snedmoneyhome.org was my preferred domain. I corrected this in WM
tools and cancelled the forwarding once www.sendmoneyhome.org showed
up again in the rankings after I corrected the problem in WM tools

Another exercise in pulling teeth. I wish people would be honest when
they post here and not try to deceive us as well as Google.
It is, of course, as we're becoming accustomed to after last weekend,
another domain farm.

Yes, if the purpose of that link is to artificially increase the
apparent number of inbound links. A lot of people do this, sometimes
using hundreds of sites. It would appear, from the many posts from
multi-domain operations over the last two days, that Google has
started to crack down.
You can resent what you like - bots don't care about resentment. They
just data mine and collate.

Against my better judgement, I have removed the links from www.pbintel.com on your advice. As I mentioned earlier in my post, I have never paid
for a link and have built up very relationships with austere
organisations and have got where I am through organic (and not
deceitful) methods.
